This study evaluated Generation II of the Faith in Action program (which united faith-based organizations and volunteers in providing in-home care), assessing how many original grantees still served their communities, numbers of volunteers and clients involved with the programs, services provided, and program growth since receiving surveys of program directors indicated that most programs had been serving clients for an average of 4.5 years since receiving the grant. Nearly all programs involved volunteers in providing basic home services. Most volunteers filled these needs for extended periods. Programs were able to provide services for a median cost of $5.77 in actual cash expenditures per hour of client service provided. Four factors strongly associated with program survival: number of volunteers recruited and retained, sufficient annual funding from diverse sources, number of services provided, and coalition support in fundraising and volunteer recruitment. Strategies for recruiting and retaining volunteers included relying on coalition members to recruit volunteers and matching at least some clients with volunteers teams. Strategies to improve fundraising capacity included maintaining large coalitions and recruiting most volunteers from congregations. Strategies for gaining community support included maintaining contact with congregational leaders and monitoring community needs. Characteristics of program directors associated with program success included prior experience with voluntary caregiving and training and supervision of volunteers. (Contains 10 references.) (SM)
